Add new heuristic for resolving instruction sizes.
Add new heuristic for resolving instruction sizes. This applies to the the
decision between extended and base page addressing by calculating the range
of possible addresses (if reasonably knowable) and deciding on whether to
force extended addressing based on that. (If the whole range is outside the
direct page, extended addressing is required.)

While there is general agreement on the pneumonics for most of the 6309 instructions, there is some variance with the block transfer instructions. TFM for all four variations seems to have gained the most traction and, thus, this is the form that is recommended for LWASM. However, it also supports COPY, COPY-, IMP, EXP, TFRP, TFRM, TFRS, and TFRR. It further adds COPY+ as a synomym for COPY, IMPLODE for IMP, and EXPAND for EXP.</P ><P >By default, LWASM accepts 6309 instructions. However, using the <CODE CLASS="PARAMETER" >--6809</CODE > parameter, you can cause it to throw errors on 6309 instructions instead.</P ><P >The standard addressing mode specifiers are supported. These are the hash sign ("#") for immediate mode, the less than sign ("<") for forced eight bit modes, and the greater than sign (">") for forced sixteen bit modes.</P ><P >Additionally, LWASM supports using the asterisk ("*") to indicate base page addressing. This should not be used in hand-written source code, however, because it is non-standard and may or may not be present in future versions of LWASM.</P ></DIV ><DIV CLASS="NAVFOOTER" ><HR ALIGN="LEFT" WIDTH="100%"><TABLE SUMMARY="Footer navigation table" WIDTH="100%" BORDER="0" CELLPADDING="0" CELLSPACING="0" ><TR ><TD WIDTH="33%" ALIGN="left" VALIGN="top" ><A HREF="c45.html" ACCESSKEY="P" >Prev</A ></TD ><TD WIDTH="34%" ALIGN="center" VALIGN="top" ><A HREF="index.html" ACCESSKEY="H" >Home</A ></TD ><TD WIDTH="33%" ALIGN="right" VALIGN="top" ><A HREF="x177.html" ACCESSKEY="N" >Next</A ></TD ></TR ><TR ><TD WIDTH="33%" ALIGN="left" VALIGN="top" >LWASM</TD ><TD WIDTH="34%" ALIGN="center" VALIGN="top" ><A HREF="c45.html" ACCESSKEY="U" >Up</A ></TD ><TD WIDTH="33%" ALIGN="right" VALIGN="top" >Source Format</TD ></TR ></TABLE ></DIV ></BODY ></HTML >
